Michigan Faces
Payless Paydays
For Lawmakers
Lansing, Mich. -(DPI)- Gov.
G. Mennen Williams drafted
a timetable for state fiscal col
lapse today after ordering
payless paydays for lawmak
ers and judges.
The order followed an un
expected decision by state
Senate Republicans Tuesday
to shelve a stop-gap plan to
convert the veterans trust
fund to cash.
'Lasting Damage' Seen
"This will do incredible and
lasting damage to the state,"
Williams said. "It is a disaster
of the first magnitude."
Williams scheduled a cabi
net meeting today to formu
late "an orderly program for
the suspension of essential
state obligations until such
time as the legislature pro
vides money to meet them."
Williams halted processing
of about 325 checks totaling
more than $100,000 for the
legislature, supreme and cir
cuit courts.
Wi ims said the 85,100,000
payroll scheduled May 7 for
28,000 other state employees,
including himself, will not be
met unless emergency funds
are provided.
The order came less than
two hours after a GOP Senate
caucus voted solidly to junk a
plan to cash in the veterans
trust fund.
Use Tax Eyed
A new bill will be substitut
ed. It would tack a one-cent
use tax on to the trust fund
plan but May 11 is the ear
liest it could clear the legisla
ture. "It's our answer to both the
immediate cash crisis and the
long-range revenue problem,"
said Senate Majority Leader
Frank D. Beadle.
The governor was bitter.
"The action of the Senate
Republican caucus makes it
clear that they are determined
to have payless laydays and
now they have their wish,"
Williams six-term Democrat
ic governor, said.
"In effect, they have de
cided to let the State of Mich
igan go down the drain."
Grand Jury Study
Of Death Proposed
Portland- (UPD -A coroner's
jury recommended Tuesday
that the Multnomah county
grand jury investigate the
death of a 16-year-old boy at
Jantzen beach park here April
10.
Gary Seekins, Orchard,
Wash., was killed when he
pitched from the front seat of
the Big Dipper ride and was
crushed as the train passed
over him.
The coroner's jury heard
from about 40 witnesses, some
testifying that a safety bar in
stalled on the Big Dipper was
not functioning properly.
District Attorney Charles
Raymond said that if the
grand jury should issue an
indictment "it is presumed
the charge would be invol
untary manslaughter."
The park is operated by

Morse Remark
Feltlll-Advised
But Only Human
Washington -UPD- President
Eisenhower said today he saw
no reason why Mrs. Clare
Boothe Luce should resign as
the new U.S. ambassador to
Brazil. ,
Eisenhower conceded at a
news conference that Mrs.
Luce's remark about Sen
Wayne Morse (D-Ore.) Tues
day following her Senate con
firmation may have been ill
advised. But he thought it was
only human.
Mrs. Luce remarked that
her troubles with Morse "go
some years back when Sen.
Morse was kicked in the head
by a horse." Morse had led a
bitter, but futile attack, on
Mrs. Luce's nomination.
1 Eisenhower revealed that,
at his request, "a special check
was made in Brazil Tuesday
afternoon. He said this show
ed that it was quite clear Mrs.
Luce still would be welcome
Washington - (IPI) - Sen.
Wayne Morse (D-Ore.) was
kicked in the jaw by a horse
in 1951 while he was attend
ing a horse show in Orkney
Springs. Va.
Aides recalled that the
kick, which featured in the
acid exchange between
Morse and Mrs. Clare Booth
Luce Tuesday, fractured
Morse's jaw. He was hos
pitalized for several days
but was not seriously in
jured. Aides said Morse has been
kidded about the incident
several limes i n political
campaigns. They said he al
ways laughed off lhe barbs.
as this country's envoy in
Brazil. Therefore, he said, he
saw no major impairment of
her usefulness.
Husband Urges Resignation
Mrs. Luce's husband, maga
ine publisher Henry R. Luce,
had urged Tuesday night that
his wife offer to resign in
view of the attacks made on
her in the Senate.
Eisenhower said Mrs. Luce
had submitted no resignation
and, he had not been in direct
contact with her since the
Senate confirmation.
In New York, a spokesman
for Mrs. Luce said she had no
comment to make on the Pres
ident's statement at this time.
Some senators who were
pictured Tuesday night as
ready to go on record against
Mrs. Luce if she did not re
sign had cooled down today.
A reported move by some
Democrats to o'ffera resolu
tion expressing lack of confi
dence in Mrs. Luce also ap
peared to have been aban
doned. No Resolution in Works
' Senate official sources said
there was no resolution of
criticism now in the works
that they knew of. They said
the President's news confer
e n c e statement supporting
Mrs. Luce increased the like
lihood that any action would
be dropped. To carry the fight
further, it was said, might
damage U. S. relations with
Latin America without remov
ing Mrs. Luce as ambassador
to Brazil.
The President also took the
occasion to express puzzle
ment over the delay in Senate
confirmation of other admin
istration appointees.
He defended Lewis W.
Airports Lacking
Room for Runways
Portland - (UPD - A New
York port official said Tues
day that "we have gone about
as far as we can go in ex
tension of runways."
The comment came from
Austin Tobin of the Port of
New York at the annual con
vention of Airport Operators'
Council here. ,
Tobin said it was not only
economically impractical, but
physically impossible to ex
tend runways in many cities.
"At New York International
we could go to 14,000 or
15,000 feet by building out
into the bay. But the cost
would be frightful," he said.
Airport operators say their
official policy is that airplanes
must be restricted i to fit the
runways.
Spokesmen for aircraft
manufacturers disagreed. Don
Buck, of Boeing Airplane
Company, Seattle, said such a
policy would block further
progress.

MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford, Or.
Wednesday, April 29, 1959
Strauss, whose nomination as
secretary of commerce has run
into long delays in the Senate.
Eisenhower said Strauss,
former chairman of the
Atomic Energy Commission,
was one of the finest public
servants he had ever known
and that he knew nothing but
the best about Strauss' hon
esty, integrity and capability.
Eisenhower said sternly that
while he was not criticizing or
attempting to evaluate the mo
tives of senators, he himself
saw no reason for delaying the
confirmation of over 1,000
nominees.
Eisenhower was asked, in
view of Tuesday's uproar,
whether Mrs. Luce should go
on to her post in Brazil or
follow the advice of her hus
band and resign. Before an
swering directly he traced her
career as ambassador to Italy
and said he had always known
her as a dedicated, useful pub
lic servant.
Defends Horse Siaiement
As for her remarks about
Morse being kicked in the
head by a horse, he said he
was sure it was not meant as
any disparagement of the sen
ator. Rather, he said, it was a
perfectly human remark made
when she undoubtedly, felt
heated on the subject.
He suggested that she prob
ably hoped such a remark
would never get in print.
But even if ill-advised, her
remarks about Morse was hu
man, the President said, and
he saw no major impairment
of her usefulness in Brazil.
He pointed out that former
Secretary of State John Foster
Dulles had suggested her ap
pointment. He said that after
her husband's Time magazine
printed a story which was
blamed ,for violence in Bo
livia, she offered to have her
nomination withdrawn. Here
again, the President pointed
out, was a case when the gov
ernment did not think this was
necessary because of senti
ment in Brazil indicating she
would be welcome as this na
tion's envoy.
